TOPSAIL AREA, NC – The Greater Topsail Area Chamber of Commerce & Tourism is pleased to announce that the Annual Awards Luncheon and Silent Auction is set for May 20 at the Historic Assembly Building, 720 Channel Blvd., Topsail Beach.

The Annual Chamber Awards Luncheon honors excellence in six categories – Volunteer of the Year, Non-Profit of the Year, Business Person of the Year, Hospitality Business of the Year, Business of the Year, and Lifetime Achievement.

“The annual luncheon is a highlight of our year as an organization as we honor outstanding members of the Chamber,” said Tammy Proctor, Chamber director. “This year, the annual luncheon is sponsored by the Historical Society of Topsail Island and Sanctum 1791.”

Last year the Chamber’s events committee added a silent auction to the program. Proctor said the auction was extremely competitive and well-received by attendees.  The silent auction will be returned by popular demand. Doors to the event will open at 11 a.m. for attendees to browse and bid on silent auction items. The auction will close at 1 p.m.

The lunch buffet will be served at 11:30 a.m., and the awards program will begin at approximately 12:15 p.m.

“One representative from a Chamber member company is admitted free, and each additional guest is $20,” said Proctor. “Tickets may be ordered online at topsailchamber.org/events. Select May 20 on the events calendar.”
